[UPDATE]
1:14 PM PT -- Prince William's daddykins -- Charles the Prince of Wales -- has just released a statement on the birth of the baby ... saying, "Both my wife and I are overjoyed at the arrival of my first grandchild. It is an incredibly special moment for William and Catherine and we are so thrilled for them on the birth of their baby boy."
Also, it sounds like he hasn't seen the baby yet ... because he added, "We are eagerly looking forward to seeing the baby in the near future."
12:53 PM PT -- THE DOCUMENT HAS ARRIVED!!!! And it doesn't say anything interesting at all, except that Kate "safely delivered of a son" and she and the baby are doing well. Woo-freaking-hoo.
It's official, Prince William has secured his heir ... and millions of Brits just spilled their tea ... KATE MIDDLETON GAVE BIRTH TO A BABY BOY!!!
According to Buckingham Palace officials, Kate popped at precisely 4:24 PM GMT. The boy weighed in at 8 pounds 6 ounces.
After Prince Charles and William, the baby will become third in line to the British throne. Sorry Harry.
As we reported, a document will be signed any moment by a member of the official royal medical staff -- detailing the baby's birth info -- and it will then be driven under royal escort to Buckingham Palace, where it will be displayed on an "ornate easel." Smashing!
We still don't know the baby's name -- but that's a story for another time .
Lets hear it from the experts :
Wonderful news! Wishing the new little Prince a healthy, long life! Congrats Kate and William!!
Long live the Queen .
Boy! Congratulations Will & Kate!! Much Love & Happiness to you All! :)

The last time the world went on a rabid royal watch was 31 years ago in June of 1982 when they waited with baited breath for the birth of Prince William.
ReplyDeleteJust as today, the wave of royal baby fever spread across the pond to the US, where the souvenir market was cashing in.
For the millions who couldn't get enough of this 20th century fairy tale, they could have fun browsing through commemorative memorabilia such as a paper doll book cheekily called "Chuck & Di Have a Baby"
